Most knew that the Kansas City Chiefs' rushing attack would undergo a significant overhaul, and just a couple of days into free agency, the AFC West franchise has done just that.
First, the Chiefs signed Kenneth Walker, and now, the franchise has seen one of its free agents depart for an NFC powerhouse.
Isiah Pacheco has landed with the Detroit Lions.
We don't know the details of the deal just yet, but one of Kansas City's starting backs from 2025 is no longer a Chief. The other, Kareem Hunt, is a free agent as well, and time will tell if he returns or if he signs with another team.

Pacheco gets second chance
Isiah had a good start to his NFL career, but the past two seasons, thanks to injuries and inconsistent play, his production has fallen off a cliff.
Last season, he started 12 games and only produced 462 yards and one touchdown, as he struggled to get anything meaningful going.
Now, as David Montgomery's replacement in Detroit, Pacheco gets a chance to be a backup to Jahmyr Gibbs as he looks to revitalize his career.
We knew the Chiefs would be mixing things up roster-wise this offseason, and so far, they've done just that.
Walker in, Pacheco out.
